Marina Schwarz + 1,576 May 7, 2019 Barclays Bank fossil fuel funding protests to spread worldwide I'm taking bets when this will spread to other banks as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jan van Eck + 7,558 MG May 7, 2019 Quote from the article link: [the protesters will be] " as well as handing out chocolates to staff to apologise for the inconvenience." At least the handing out of chocolates meets with approval. The rest, not so much. Here's my guess: Barclay's Board of Directors will set up a remote vehicle, with some different name, disguised as a private-equity hedge funds, and use that vehicle to fund oil and gas projects. That creates a veil of plausible deniability. Hey, hire a couple of CIA guys, the ones that set up Air America, they know how to do that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
